Bolashaq Scholarship Programme
Bolashaq is Kazakhstan's international scholarship programme. The Bolashaq Programme provides fully funded scholarships for high-achieving students from Kazakhstan to study masters or PhD courses at selected universities in other countries before returning to work in Kazakhstan.
University College Dublin (UCD) has previously welcomed many Bolashaq scholars, and is approved by the Bolashaq Programme as a study destination for Bolashaq scholars.
Full details of the scholarships available, including eligibility criteria, application deadlines and how to apply, can be found on the Bolashaq website.
If you are a Bolashaq applicant please contact our International Scholarships and Funding Coordinator internationalscholarships@ucd.ie for support after making your UCD Study Application.
